I grew up under the impression that traffic lights were there to promote our safety. But that was until I saw this rather freaky Traffic Light Tree. The bemusing sculpture is a creation of artist Pierre Vivant and though it does mimic the form of a regular natural tree to the industrial tee, the fact that it can potentially wreck traffic situation in well over a street block is just downright scary! It may be enchanting to many, but I definitely would vote against one of these being ‘planted’ in my town anytime soon.

I love it!!! It looks like a traffic light Christmas tree..It is ingenius in it’s use of ”simple” traffic lights..Who would have thought...The functionability of it reminds of something you’d see in Mexico :)
I’m sure this traffic light tree is great during Christmas.
At least it’s colorful, if not confusing to cars.
Very creative. I just hope they don’t place it on spots where traffic lights are really supposed to be. they might end up confusing drivers and causing car crashes.
